00:00:25.780 The Poso Daily Brief.

00:00:30.000 This is what happens when the fourth turning meets fifth generation warfare.

00:00:39.380 A commentator, international social media sensation, and former Navy intelligence veteran.

00:00:46.080 This is Human Events with your host, Jack Poso.

00:00:49.020 Christ is king.

00:00:50.720 Chaos in Chicago as federal agents clash with protesters.

00:00:53.780 Authorities are now searching for a suspect who allegedly fired shots at federal agents

00:00:58.340 on Saturday during an immigration crackdown.

00:01:00.960 Violent clashes on the streets of Chicago.

00:01:04.880 And an urgent search underway for the person who federal agents say fired multiple gunshots

00:01:10.020 at them during an immigration enforcement operation on Saturday.

00:01:13.480 A crowd was demanding a detained woman's release when the Department of Homeland Security says

00:01:17.520 a man driving a black Jeep fired the shots and then took off.

00:01:21.180 The agency sank protesters also through bricks and a paint can at their vehicles, calling those

00:01:26.360 in the crowd agitators.

00:01:27.980 After 41 days, the light is finally at the end of the tunnel.

00:01:31.740 The Senate voting 60 to 40 to pass a bill that will fund the government through January 30th.

00:01:37.000 As far as this bill is concerned, it is now in the hands of the U.S. House.

00:01:41.000 They expect to vote sometime tomorrow.

00:01:43.740 Tonight at Zellerbach Hall.

00:01:45.580 That is the group Turning Point USA, founded by the late conservative activist Charlie Kirk.

00:01:50.220 Some Cal students say they are disappointed with the school for allowing the event to happen.

00:01:55.320 So far, at least two people have been detained.

00:02:01.600 Across the globe, our veterans fought and bled to vanquish our enemies and preserve America's

00:02:12.780 birthright of freedom.

00:02:13.900 Because of you, America is safe.

00:02:16.300 Because of you, America is strong.

00:02:18.980 Because of you, America is free.

00:02:22.480 Present!

00:02:24.000 Present!

00:02:25.520 Time!

00:02:26.100 Now, ladies and gentlemen, welcome aboard today's edition of Human Events Daily.

00:02:46.280 We are here live in Washington, D.C.

00:02:49.220 Today is November 11th, 11-11.

00:02:52.920 Today is Veterans Day, 2025, Anno Domini.

00:02:57.460 And just a few hours ago, we saw President Trump there at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier.

00:03:01.560 We saw him at Arlington National Cemetery.

00:03:04.320 And just incredible views, incredible sights.

00:03:07.720 It's a windy day here in D.C.

00:03:09.440 It is a cold day here in the Imperial Capitol.

00:03:12.840 But that didn't stop the President of the United States.

00:03:14.660 And it certainly didn't stop the Vice President of the United States, a Marine, J.D. Vance,

00:03:20.940 from standing next to him and appearing with the color guard there as they laid the wreath

00:03:24.560 for America's fallen at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier earlier today.

00:03:28.960 We have a nation for one reason.

00:03:33.840 Ultimately, we have a nation for one reason only.

00:03:36.740 Because American patriots have been willing to fight for it.

00:03:40.560 Because American patriots have been willing to fight and defend this nation from the very

00:03:45.920 moment it was born.

00:03:48.200 And, in many cases, even before it was born.

00:03:50.340 If you look at the Minutemen, look at the Army, look at the Navy, the Marines, all of those

00:03:54.780 services predate the actual founding of the United States by several months, November,

00:04:01.360 October, 1775.

00:04:03.960 When you look at that, you look at the history of the patriots, you look at the history of

00:04:07.860 those who were willing to fight and those who were willing to sacrifice up to and including

00:04:13.680 the last full measure of devotion.

00:04:16.060 You understand what it means to be a nation.

00:04:19.460 You understand what it means to have a nation.

00:04:22.060 And for those people who served, and for those people who continue to serve, they go where

00:04:29.660 their government tells them.

00:04:30.920 They go where their Uncle Sam asks them to go.

00:04:33.740 They don't choose the mission.

00:04:35.600 That's a political decision.

00:04:37.340 And that's why, when we have those political decisions, that it should always be taken with

00:04:42.500 the utmost care.

00:04:44.160 But if you are going to put an American serviceman into harm's way, it is only done when it is

00:04:50.020 of the utmost importance and in the direct interests of the American nation and the defense of the

00:04:56.360 American homeland and the American people.

00:04:59.280 We would not have an American people if it were not for the American patriots and the American 0.56

00:05:04.620 veterans.

00:05:05.320 But you look at what's happening here at home.

00:05:11.100 And last night we had, and I mentioned it on Fox News, perhaps another iteration of yet another

00:05:18.920 battle of Berkeley.

00:05:21.560 We saw Antifa attacks.

00:05:23.660 We saw trans elements.

00:05:25.260 We saw furry elements attacking the students and parents, by the way, who just wanted to go to a turning

00:05:33.020 point event, spend time with their families, hear some great speakers, like Rob Schneider, a Hollywood

00:05:40.260 actor who's come out now fully embracing Christ, fully embracing his patriotism.

00:05:46.940 And they were attacked.

00:05:48.420 They were attacked by a known terrorist group, Antifa.

00:05:51.380 The Berkeley chapter of Antifa is called By Any Means Necessary.

00:05:54.880 They were behind the attacks of the Battle of Berkeley all the way back to 2017, the multiple battles

00:05:59.420 of Berkeley.

00:06:00.440 And yet, for some reason, they have not yet been rolled up.

00:06:04.120 It needs to be stopped.

00:06:05.660 We can't allow this to happen to our people.

00:06:08.300 American patriots must defend the American people, both here at home as well as abroad, from this insanity.

00:06:15.980 And turning point USA.

00:06:16.840 We faced violence at the very last event of the tour, and we faced violence at the very first event of the tour.

00:06:27.320 Radical Marxists attacking people at the streets and committing one assassination.

00:06:34.900 This has to stop.

00:06:36.620 It absolutely has to stop.

00:06:38.240 And we have to get this country right.

00:06:40.600 So, if we're going to honor veterans today, if we're going to honor patriotism today, then we should honor the things that they fought for.

00:06:50.400 Honor the things that the World War I veterans fought for.

00:06:53.960 Sergeant Alvin York.

00:06:56.580 World War II.

00:06:57.780 The Band of Brothers.

00:06:59.400 The Boys in Normandy.

00:07:01.280 Honor what they fought for.

00:07:03.840 For now and all time.

00:07:06.000 And we will be able to defend our country.

00:07:07.840 We'll be right back with the Undersecretary of the Air Force, Matt Lohmeyer.

00:07:11.520 The Honorable Matt Lohmeyer joins me here in studio.

00:07:14.060 We'll be right back.

00:07:14.500 Human Events.

00:07:22.560 We'll stand in our way.

00:07:24.320 And our golden age has just begun.

00:07:26.660 This is Human Events with Jack Posobiec.

00:07:28.440 Now it's time for everyone to understand what America First truly means.

00:07:32.900 Welcome to the second American Revolution. 0.56

00:07:37.840 All right, Jack Posobiec.

00:07:40.760 We're back live here.

00:07:41.760 Human Events daily.

00:07:43.420 Washington, D.C.

00:07:45.320 Real America's Voice.

00:07:46.900 Folks, anyone knows me and knows the work that Human Events does day in, day out, knows that the conservative movement never stops.

00:07:54.520 And the fuel that keeps me, the show, and the work going is Blackout Coffee.

00:07:58.680 And for years, let me tell you something, Blackout Coffee has been my coffee of choice.

00:08:02.060 And I know so many of you have missed it, just like I have.

00:08:05.940 And Blackout Coffee isn't just a cup.

00:08:09.000 It's America in a cup. 0.67

00:08:10.660 It's founded on Christian values, rooted in family, and built on the belief that hardworking Americans deserve better than that corporate swill. 0.53

00:08:17.600 Blackout Coffee is a family business that roasts every batch right here in the USA.

00:08:21.360 Two roasts, you've got to try Morning Reaper, a smooth, medium roast that kicks off your day without bitterness.

00:08:26.640 And for the dark roast lovers, brutal awakening.

00:08:29.060 That's personally my favorite.

00:08:30.280 A bold, rich roast with deep flavor that'll keep you sharp and alert.

00:08:33.700 It's perfect for serving friends and family around the holidays.

00:08:35.860 So let's face it.

00:08:36.780 The best gatherings we know, they start with the best coffee.

00:08:52.760 One strong cup at a time.

00:08:55.520 Well, folks, today is Veterans Day, and we wanted to tell a veteran's story.

00:08:59.740 And I'm really excited to be able to tell you that there is a new documentary that's coming out about a veteran's story

00:09:05.500 that actually isn't even from, you know, as long ago as 1775 or 1776.

00:09:13.760 In fact, it's just from the last couple of years, because just as America's story has continued,

00:09:18.800 so too has the story of American servicemen and the story of American veterans.

00:09:24.400 And there's a new documentary that's come out telling one of those stories.

00:09:29.800 And I wanted to share that with you.

00:09:32.580 It is called Call Sign Courage, The Matt Lohmeyer Story.

00:09:37.540 Let's run the trailer. 0.52

00:09:39.460 Being spied on, the chaplain snooping around my office, and my house being broken into.

00:09:45.760 Things like that don't happen on military bases.

00:09:49.100 The man I'm interviewing today has 1,200 hours of flying a T-38, followed by the F-15C.

00:09:56.780 Colonel Matthew Lohmeyer.

00:09:58.340 Matthew Lohmeyer.

00:09:59.420 Matthew Lohmeyer.

00:10:00.120 This is not just anybody we're talking about that served the military.

00:10:04.960 Historically, we've been the best in the world, because we've always cared about merit.

00:10:10.580 And it's what made the American military the most lethal military on the planet.

00:10:14.540 The entire military is preparing for a fight against China.

00:10:18.080 President Xi is the most ideological leader that China's had since Chairman Mao.

00:10:22.880 Mao said he doesn't need military people.

00:10:25.320 He has an army of indoctrinated kids.

00:10:28.560 They asked me what my pronouns were, and they thought it was incredible to see that inclusion

00:10:32.860 and change.

00:10:34.900 We were starting to be divided by political discourse.

00:10:37.900 I want to understand white rage, and I'm white.

00:10:39.840 That's what diversity, equity, and inclusion is all about.

00:10:42.400 Inclusion, equality are what's important.

00:10:44.620 That's how we'll win our nation's wars.

00:10:46.500 We are trained Marxists.

00:10:48.420 Because of forces coming from Marxism within our own government, it becomes not a foreign

00:10:52.740 threat.

00:10:53.220 It becomes a domestic threat.

00:10:55.260 The base commander was the ideologue who was pushing a particular political agenda.

00:10:59.720 If you're white, you're a part of the problem. 1.00

00:11:01.380 Biggest terror threat in this country is white men. 0.88

00:11:04.760 Violent white supremacy.

00:11:06.220 One of the greatest obstacles to the success of a Marxist revolutionary cause is a strong

00:11:12.840 united military force.

00:11:15.980 Someone needed to speak up.

00:11:17.480 Incredible documentary that is out now.

00:11:30.640 You can check it out on Salem Now, SalemNow.com.

00:11:34.880 I'm very excited to be joined here, live in studio, by the Undersecretary of the Air Force

00:11:42.220 and a veteran himself, in fact, the first veteran of the Space Force.

00:11:46.300 The Honorable Matt Lohmeyer joins us.

00:11:47.780 What's up, Matt?

00:11:48.300 Thanks for having me, Jack.

00:11:49.340 Pleasure to be here.

00:11:49.980 So, your story, you know, going from writing a book the way you did, coming out the way

00:11:59.080 you did, what happened to you, the response from previous administration, and now, I really

00:12:10.180 don't want to make an Air Force pun right here, but soaring to what you've become, what does

00:12:16.880 it feel like?

00:12:17.720 Just going back and kind of, if you had to think about it from, I don't know if you fly

00:12:22.900 at 50,000 feet, but maybe the Space Force does.

00:12:24.780 Almost.

00:12:25.300 Space Force.

00:12:25.980 Yeah, Space Force certainly does.

00:12:27.200 Well above.

00:12:27.960 But, yeah, Neo, Hio, Leo, right?

00:12:30.820 There you go, yeah.

00:12:31.680 And just...

00:12:33.400 Leo, Leo, Leo, Geo.

00:12:34.580 Geo, Leo, Geo, yes, yes, yes.

00:12:36.380 That's great.

00:12:36.900 I'll get there, I'll get there.

00:12:38.000 You're getting there.

00:12:39.020 I'll get there.

00:12:39.480 I've got to work on my boards again.

00:12:41.480 It's been a minute.

00:12:42.500 But how does it feel, having gone through so many ups and downs, to now be sitting here

00:12:49.800 today in the position you're in?

00:12:51.100 You asked a hard question up front.

00:12:52.740 So, first off, thank you for having me in.

00:12:54.420 I did.

00:12:55.220 You did.

00:12:55.820 There's a lot of feelings.

00:12:56.960 I want to say, I guess, kind of a necessary caveat up front, which you'll appreciate.

00:13:02.180 You know, I didn't come here to promote the film.

00:13:04.060 Thank you for your support for the film.

00:13:06.540 But it is my story.

00:13:07.800 I'm here to talk about veterans and the work we're doing in the Air Force, of course.

00:13:11.860 Of course.

00:13:12.080 And I do want to tell you a little bit about how I'm feeling.

00:13:16.760 I'm still trying to process that, actually.

00:13:18.660 I wrote a book, you know, nearly four, over four years ago now, because I saw problems

00:13:27.020 that were dividing the force.

00:13:28.560 And like you or anyone that served in the military, you appreciate the fact that a divided military

00:13:35.020 is not a strong military.

00:13:36.720 You need a united military, in fact.

00:13:38.660 Unity is our strength, not diversity.

00:13:40.420 And the problems that I happened to see at my base were something that I had tried to

00:13:45.660 use all of the appropriate channels from my chain of command to the inspector general's

00:13:51.400 office to try to tell a story that would hopefully hold activists accountable for political activism

00:13:56.560 in the military workplace.

00:13:57.760 That didn't work.

00:13:58.380 So I wrote a book.

00:13:59.560 You were very supportive back then, by the way, so thank you very much.

00:14:02.560 It was a great book.

00:14:03.320 And so I ended up in private life for the last four years, which I enjoyed very much.

00:14:09.260 I enjoyed having a full range of free expression of my views as a private citizen, but ended

00:14:16.380 up meeting President Trump.

00:14:18.880 It's been a little over a year that that happened.

00:14:20.720 In fact, one year ago today, exactly, I was sitting with Pete Hagseth before he was nominated

00:14:26.760 by the president to be the secretary of defense.

00:14:28.540 We were in John Rich's bar in downtown Nashville, Tennessee, and we were doing a Fox Nation show

00:14:35.160 on Veterans Day, and he told me he was headed to the White House the very next day to interview

00:14:41.560 for the job that he's currently in.

00:14:43.200 I said, God bless you.

00:14:44.080 Good luck with that.

00:14:44.680 That sounds terrible.

00:14:46.100 But he stepped up to the plate, and I was happy to step up when he and the president asked

00:14:50.160 me to come in and do a job for the Air Force.

00:14:51.940 My feelings are it's exciting.

00:14:54.300 It's daunting.

00:14:55.280 It's been a steeper learning curve than I expected.

00:14:57.260 I speak both Air Force and Space Force, and yet there's a whole lot to learn, and I'm

00:15:01.900 four months into the job, and I'm getting the hang of it now.

00:15:04.040 You know, when I deployed down to Gitmo, I was actually attached to an Army unit, so

00:15:09.000 I like to say I speak a little bit of Army.

00:15:11.840 I could say I don't know if I speak Army, but I understand it, but of course I speak Navy.

00:15:16.700 I didn't realize that Space Force had already generated its own lingo.

00:15:20.040 It has its own lingo because it's got its own domain.

00:15:24.380 You know, I had to divorce, I had flown F-15s, I've been a T-38 instructor pilot.

00:15:29.840 You have to kind of divorce yourself a little bit from the air mindset and start thinking

00:15:34.520 about orbital mechanics, LEO, MIO, GMO, the words you're already learning, and you want

00:15:40.800 your operators.

00:15:41.800 Those are satellite orbits, by the way.

00:15:43.080 Those are satellite orbits.

00:15:44.580 Yeah, anything you can look up at night, by the way, and see with the naked eye, the moving

00:15:49.700 satellites, the little teeny stars that go slowly across the sky, those are in low Earth orbit,

00:15:54.400 LEO.

00:15:55.400 Would that include Starlink, Elon Musk?

00:15:58.120 Yeah, in fact, if you've had a chance to see Starlink, you'll see those things transitioning

00:16:02.460 up into space, big train of lights that are going up there.

00:16:05.840 Anything beyond LEO, you're not going to be able to pick up with the naked eye.

00:16:09.380 People mistake what we have in LEO for other things, but those are satellites, they're reflecting

00:16:13.440 the sunlight.

00:16:14.800 So you get to see a little bit of what's going on in space, but not much.

00:16:17.700 I was just at the Andrews Air Force Base Air Show about a month and a half ago, and you've

00:16:22.440 got people from all over that come in and they pet the jets and they see what the Air

00:16:25.340 Force does, but you can't see what the Space Force does.

00:16:27.800 So our space operators actually need to develop a unique mindset to be able to operate successfully

00:16:32.220 in that domain.

00:16:33.280 So I speak both of those languages, and yet here I am now, a public servant, civilian,

00:16:37.040 a political appointee, helping manage the Air Force and, frankly, care for the troops,

00:16:44.660 the Airmen and Guardians in the Air and Space Force, by giving them the proper resources

00:16:48.160 to do their jobs, to train properly, the tools that they need to successfully do their mission.

00:16:53.580 It's a daunting task, but it's exciting and I'm grateful to be here.

00:16:56.540 How would you say the transition's been going from serving in uniform as your lieutenant colonel

00:17:03.200 then to civilian life, but now in a leadership of force capacity?

00:17:07.820 I've had some surprises and also some things I expected.

00:17:12.060 The bureaucracy of the Pentagon is a behemoth.

00:17:17.480 Bob Gates, in his memoir, said he was even shocked when he became Secretary of Defense

00:17:22.100 back in the day, first during, I think, the Obama years, in fact, maybe it was the Bush

00:17:27.740 administration and then the Obama years, but he was shocked at the bureaucracy, how difficult

00:17:31.480 it is to successfully get done what needs to get done.

00:17:34.660 I've read Panetta's memoir and he talks about that as well.

00:17:37.940 Everyone experiences it.

00:17:39.160 That was a surprise, actually.

00:17:40.560 My love and respect for the troops and what they do on a day-in and day-out basis has been

00:17:45.760 refreshing to experience that firsthand.

00:17:48.440 It's not a surprise to me, but it was a great reminder coming back out of civilian life and

00:17:52.560 to this leadership and management capacity to be able to interact with them.

00:17:57.700 And our senior leaders, we have many great senior leaders, despite some of the negative

00:18:00.600 press that we get.

00:18:01.940 Our Air and Space Force leaders, I think, they have my respect.

00:18:05.780 They're trying their best to serve the American people and the president's agenda.

00:18:09.400 Well, I think that's exactly right.

00:18:11.400 Folks, we are here.

00:18:12.400 It is Veterans Day.

00:18:13.940 We're sitting down in studio on human events daily with Under Secretary of the Air Force,

00:18:19.540 Lieutenant Colonel Matthew Lohmeyer, the first Space Force veteran.

00:18:24.280 You have to stop getting titles, Matt, by the way.

00:18:26.280 I'm getting a lot of them.

00:18:27.280 There's too many titles to put out there.

00:18:30.160 He is also, and he's not promoting, but I'm promoting, he is the subject of the new

00:18:33.780 documentary, Call Sign Courage.

00:18:35.780 You can go and get that on SalemNow.com.

00:18:38.780 We're going to take a very quick break, because when we get back, I want to get into some of

00:18:44.000 the things that you talked about in the book that you put out and some of the things that

00:18:49.000 our military, you know, prior to Secretary Hegseth coming in, had been steering us down, I think,

00:18:55.340 the wrong path, and things that we're doing now to right the ship and correctly orient

00:19:00.800 it towards America's adversaries and America's threats.

00:19:03.680 Yeah, right the ship, you know?

00:19:04.800 Right the ship.

00:19:05.800 What can I say?

00:19:06.800 Navy terms are the best terms, as we all know. 0.98

00:19:07.800 We'll be right back.

00:19:08.800 Human Events Daily, New York City, Washington, D.C., Real America's Voice.

00:19:13.800 All right, folks, Jack Kosobik, we are back live here, Human Events Daily, Washington, D.C.

00:19:37.500 We're here live in studio, and we're honored to be joined by the Honorable Matthew Lohmeyer,

00:19:42.360 Under Secretary of the Air Force, and Under Secretary Lohmeyer, you wrote this book, and

00:19:51.320 it became the subject of so much information, it became the subject of, well, it became the

00:19:56.080 impetus for, and the catalyst for what made you the first Space Force veteran.

00:20:02.120 What made you want to put pen to paper when you wrote that book?

00:20:05.280 FRUSTRATION WITH MY FAILED ATTEMPTS TO USE THE SYSTEM, A CHAIN OF COMMAND, AND THE INSPECTOR GENERAL'S

00:20:14.240 OFFICE TO CORRECT POLITICAL ACTIVISM IN THE MILITARY WORKPLACE.

00:20:20.280 I had attempted for many months to right a wrong that was happening.

00:20:25.120 At least in many cases, poor ethical, you know, it was misconduct, and in some cases,

00:20:33.520 in my view, criminal conduct, because we've got law that prohibits discrimination within

00:20:39.920 the military based on race, hiring practices, promotion practices, and so forth.

00:20:46.280 And we had troops that were being targeted in uniform for their accidentals, as it were,

00:20:52.780 the race.

00:20:53.780 And I think my chain of command at the time in the Space Force happened to probably agree

00:20:59.000 with me that this was a big problem, but we'd created a climate of fear, and we were rendered

00:21:02.600 rather incapable of solving the problem ourselves, and so after my failed attempts, I felt inspired

00:21:08.640 to put pen to paper, as you put it, to write about it in a book as an effort to create dialogue,

00:21:14.900 to bring it to the attention of Congress and the American people, and frankly, I had the

00:21:18.440 troops in mind the entire time.

00:21:19.660 I wanted to educate them specifically about what I knew as the communist or Marxist roots

00:21:28.460 of the current progressive social justice activism that were dividing the military.

00:21:32.780 And we spent an immense amount of blood and treasure during the Cold War fighting this

00:21:38.900 very ideology.

00:21:39.820 To have it just wreck house in this country was a really sad thing and frustrating thing

00:21:43.120 to see.

00:21:43.880 And I knew exactly what it was.

00:21:45.320 Not everyone did.

00:21:45.920 And so I thought, you know, I'm uniquely situated.

00:21:48.060 I have a unique vantage as a commander in the military.

00:21:50.880 I'm going to make this, although it's about a political ideology, it's not intended to be

00:21:55.180 a partisan work.

00:21:56.280 It never was intended.

00:21:57.020 I was later painted as kind of a partisan activist.

00:21:59.800 But I wasn't.

00:22:00.800 I was about keeping partisanship out of the military.

00:22:03.340 That's what motivated me to write the book.

00:22:05.580 And in fact, it generated a dialogue.

00:22:09.620 And I think it's done an important work.

00:22:13.180 It's been valuable.

00:22:14.660 So I've also, and actually, you wrote your book prior to mine, but I also wrote a book

00:22:22.080 about communist revolutions.

00:22:23.660 You called yours the irresistible revolution.

00:22:26.440 And I think one of the things we were just talking during the break that we both came

00:22:29.160 about was that you saw this in China, but you really saw it in Bolshevik Russia, that

00:22:35.560 one of the first things that the Bolsheviks did when they wanted to recruit was they actually 0.80

00:22:40.560 went into the Tsarist army at the time.

00:22:43.060 Now, they're fighting in World War I.

00:22:44.360 So they're on the Eastern Front.

00:22:45.380 They're fighting the Germans.

00:22:46.200 They're fighting the Austrians.

00:22:47.140 But they start going in, and they start introducing these justice reforms.

00:22:52.760 And the justice reforms are meant to make the units more equitable.

00:22:56.800 And they would say, well, your unit, it's all Russian and ethnic Russian.

00:23:01.980 And you need more Bergyars and Burats and Tajiks and Tadars and all of this, you know, because 0.98

00:23:09.560 it's the Russian Empire.

00:23:10.380 They've got all these Central Asian groups.

00:23:13.120 And it almost changed the entire character.

00:23:16.140 It destabilized those units.

00:23:18.760 And then when the unit became a less capable fighting force, they went to that unit and

00:23:23.140 said, you know what?

00:23:24.260 Perhaps your real enemy isn't the Germans. 0.90

00:23:26.220 Perhaps your real enemy is back home in the Capitol.

00:23:29.360 And I realized, looking at it, saying, my gosh, these aren't similar tactics.

00:23:36.060 These are the same tactics.

00:23:37.380 Same playbook, same spirit that motivates that work.

00:23:40.860 There is no enemy on this earth.

00:23:42.800 I mean, I get to see a really clear picture now as the Undersecretary of the Air Force.

00:23:46.400 We've got incredible airmen and guardians.

00:23:48.480 They've got amazing weapons.

00:23:50.040 We've got an amazing leadership right now, Undersecretary Higgs, Seth, and President Trump.

00:23:53.180 No enemy on this planet is capable of unseating the United States as the power, the great power

00:23:59.360 on the earth.

00:24:00.520 We can undo that ourselves, however, if we start fighting one another, if we start hating

00:24:04.080 one another and demonizing the other, especially in uniform, because we become ineffective,

00:24:09.520 we're distracted.

00:24:11.280 And the mission that we do in the United States military requires a laser-like focus when you're

00:24:16.240 training to do those missions.

00:24:17.720 I just saw, if we've got time to tell a brief story, my first day back as a public servant,

00:24:24.500 I went downstairs.

00:24:25.400 I'd just been read in and was capable, you know, I was able to go in and sit down and

00:24:29.460 receive some good and important information about our military operations.

00:24:32.640 I sat down to listen to the planners and those that executed Operation Midnight Hammer in

00:24:38.940 Iran, the strikes that were so well orchestrated. 0.90

00:24:41.520 And I was nearly brought to tears, very emotional about the quality of work, the professionalism

00:24:51.640 of these young men and women who flew bombers, flew fighters, flew tankers, did a lot of planning,

00:24:58.620 sacrificed a lot of family time for a number of weeks to bring this together seamlessly and

00:25:02.520 execute a mission that was fraught with peril.

00:25:05.700 And it was just done so well.

00:25:07.760 And that's the United States military.

00:25:09.120 We are just excellent.

00:25:10.480 And you cannot persist in that excellence if you are beset by distractions like diversity

00:25:17.060 trainings, equity trainings.

00:25:18.440 Secretary Hagsworth has done a phenomenal job since the very beginning of eliminating those

00:25:22.100 things.

00:25:23.080 And I'll tell you, it's my sense that our troops are very, excuse me, our troops are very

00:25:27.060 happy that there is a return to a focus on warfighting.

00:25:31.300 That's why they signed up in the first place.

00:25:32.640 Well, and I can remember in the intelligence community on our side of the house before

00:25:35.800 I got out, I can remember them sort of going around with these sort of like mini pride flags

00:25:42.600 and mini pride like decals.

00:25:46.020 It wasn't the full flag, but like a decal.

00:25:48.760 And it would say, well, you got to put those up at your cubicle or put those up at your desk

00:25:51.920 and I'd say in the spaces.

00:25:52.900 And I'd say, well, what are those for?

00:25:54.440 I'm not, you know, first of all, I'm Catholic.

00:25:56.880 That's, you know.

00:25:58.040 And they would say, well, no, this is if you're in, this is for allies.

00:26:01.360 I said, what do you mean, allies?

00:26:03.280 What is that?

00:26:04.000 What's an ally?

00:26:04.900 And they said, well, you put it up to show your support.

00:26:07.240 I said, well, I don't really feel comfortable putting something like that up.

00:26:10.380 I just, I'm just, I'm just going to sit at my desk and focus on China.

00:26:13.880 That's all right with you guys.

00:26:15.180 I'm really not, I'm just not interested.

00:26:18.120 Just, just, I'll pass.

00:26:19.360 And you could see how there was this social pressure that was brought to bear that if

00:26:25.540 you, that if you rejected the, you know, the display of whatever the cause was, and it

00:26:31.100 wouldn't have anything to do about the issue.

00:26:32.380 It's just about the cause that suddenly, you know, suddenly that's a demerit against

00:26:36.200 you.

00:26:36.500 Suddenly that's a check against you.

00:26:37.900 And suddenly, you know, people start looking at you differently and people start writing

00:26:41.620 your stuff up differently.

00:26:42.580 And, and you're, you're sitting there wondering, why aren't we focused on the mission?

00:26:49.100 That's what I'm sitting here doing.

00:26:50.680 That's why I'm learning Mandarin.

00:26:51.980 That's why I focus on all of this because we want to win.

00:26:55.240 And it seemed like we had totally lost our focus.

00:26:58.520 And this is under, under Obama during those years.

00:27:01.740 We'd right back quick break here.

00:27:04.220 We're with Lieutenant Colonel Matt Lohmeyer, current under secretary of the air force live

00:27:08.720 on Human Events Daily.

00:27:09.800 Veterans Day.

00:27:12.580 Where's Jack?

00:27:17.500 Where's Jack?

00:27:19.640 Where is he?

00:27:20.900 Jack, I want to see you.

00:27:24.560 Great job, Jack.

00:27:26.040 Thank you.

00:27:26.800 What a job you do.

00:27:28.240 You know, we have an incredible thing.

00:27:29.420 We're always talking about the fake news and the bad, but we have guys and these are the

00:27:34.100 guys who should be getting Pulisic.

00:27:36.700 All right, Jack, we're back live here.

00:27:38.820 Human Events Daily, Washington, D.C.

00:27:42.060 We are on with under secretary of the air force, Matt Lohmeyer.

00:27:46.980 He's here and he's walking us through his book, The Irresistible Revolution.

00:27:51.240 And it occurs to me, you know, talking about you saw, so you were, you were depicting and

00:28:00.100 mapping out the issues that you saw within the force when you were, when you were in

00:28:03.460 uniform.

00:28:04.420 You get slapped down for that.

00:28:05.960 You become the first veteran of the Space Force.

00:28:08.480 You go into private life.

00:28:10.660 You come back in this capacity.

00:28:13.720 That revolutionary change that we saw going on within the force, where is it now?

00:28:20.880 And what are the initiatives to, I don't want to say right the ship, but I'm going to have

00:28:27.140 to say it.

00:28:27.500 I'm going to have to say right the ship.

00:28:28.280 Right, I'm learning Navy lingo.

00:28:29.740 Yeah, I'll get you there.

00:28:30.860 I'll get you there.

00:28:32.200 So I think that your viewers would be well aware of the fact that President Trump comes

00:28:37.520 back into office, issues a number of executive orders that are deliberately targeting these

00:28:43.280 problems within the uniformed services and across all of the federal agencies.

00:28:46.660 In fact, before he left office for his first term, in September of 2020, he attempted by

00:28:53.000 executive order to eliminate diversity, equity, and inclusion trainings from the uniformed

00:28:56.940 services.

00:28:57.440 And so there was a short reprieve there before the next administration had come in.

00:29:01.040 Secretary Hegseth, as the Secretary of Defense, now Secretary of War, has done an outstanding

00:29:06.660 job moving out quickly, executing those executive orders.

00:29:10.300 And each of the services or the departments, and in my case, the Department of the Air Force,

00:29:15.540 have efforts underway and have ever since the beginning of this administration to be very

00:29:22.720 clear in our communication with the force that we're merit-focused, that we're standards-focused.

00:29:28.200 And you know what's really interesting, and I mentioned this in my book that you brought

00:29:31.480 up, I warn in the book that if we abandon meritocracy and if we abandon a standards-based

00:29:38.100 military, we will see our recruitment numbers plummet and our retention plummet.

00:29:41.940 And that happened, and as soon as the president, this administration, Secretary Hegseth re-adjusted

00:29:50.860 the focus to be meritocracy-based, standards-based, what did you see happen with recruitment and

00:29:55.960 retention?

00:29:56.500 It soared.

00:29:57.160 We didn't have a problem for the first time in a number of years meeting our recruiting

00:30:00.120 goals.

00:30:01.060 You've got young men and women all over the country that are excited to come in and serve

00:30:04.260 in the military.

00:30:04.900 And they see that lethality matters and nothing else.

00:30:08.420 We're interested in serving our country, keeping the homeland safe, deterring our enemies

00:30:12.320 abroad, and we've got a serious administration that prioritizes those things.

00:30:17.880 And we want to serve again.

00:30:19.240 You know, we want to serve again.

00:30:20.080 A lot of people reached out over the last few years not sure if they should serve and wanted

00:30:24.940 my opinion.

00:30:25.740 And now I don't get those questions anymore.

00:30:27.880 I get people excitedly telling me they're signing up and are so happy with how things are

00:30:31.240 going.

00:30:31.440 You know, it's funny you mention that because I had so many people would, when I do the

00:30:34.980 turning point events and, you know, we would have college kids come up or even sometimes

00:30:39.760 high school kids come up and they would say, you know, during, and during the previous

00:30:42.860 administration, they would say, you know, I've always wanted to go in, I've always wanted

00:30:46.240 to serve my country, but I'm just, I'm just not sure because I hear you talk about these

00:30:51.740 things and, you know, I had, you know, heard your book, heard about you, heard of your

00:30:55.480 story and say, you know, does it make sense for me to go in?

00:30:58.320 And what I would always say is this, I would say, do it.

00:31:00.260 I would say, go in and, and, you know, tell me your opinion on it.

00:31:03.860 But I would always say, do in, go in because we are going to win because I believe common

00:31:09.320 sense is going to win.

00:31:10.540 I believe the military will return to form.

00:31:12.820 And I believe that the right answers will once again, uh, take the, take over the leadership.

00:31:17.960 And when that point comes, we are going to need good people that are already there.

00:31:21.220 Uh, unlike you, I'm not talking about me now, but unlike you, there were, you know,

00:31:27.380 one of the ways in which we get young men and women to even take interest in the, in

00:31:31.280 an all volunteer force in the first place is that they've got moms and dads and grandmas

00:31:36.340 and grandpas who have all served, aunts and uncles.

00:31:38.280 And when you've got an older generation in particular, that does not appreciate the direction that

00:31:48.020 the country is going, that does not appreciate the, the policy changes within the defense

00:31:52.840 department, now war department, that, um, that seem to upend all that they, you know, all

00:31:58.440 that they fought for themselves and the unity that they experienced, uh, uh, while they

00:32:02.920 were in uniform, they're not willing to recommend to the next generation military service.

00:32:07.500 And, and I think we're, we're seeing a change there again.

00:32:10.320 And that would just shatter the military.

00:32:13.500 That's, that is your core recruiting base.

00:32:16.520 And especially because so many of those, uh, those kids, when they come through the pipeline,

00:32:20.500 when they were hitting 16, 17, where those prime recruitment ages, you know, if, if they're,

00:32:25.220 if they're vomited at or active duty, they've grown up in, in the military.

00:32:29.280 They've grown up on post or on base.

00:32:31.120 They've gone to military schools.

00:32:32.280 They've had, you know, they've had, uh, you know, military healthcare, et cetera, et cetera.

00:32:35.860 So they're, they're familiar with it.

00:32:37.620 They know it.

00:32:38.560 And, you know, this has always been the core draw.

00:32:41.620 I, I, uh, I was, uh, lived on base for a number of years and I, I always used to make

00:32:45.880 a joke about it.

00:32:46.520 I'd say, you know, it's very interesting to me that here on base, we have, uh, we have a hospital,

00:32:50.460 we have a daycare, we have an elementary school, we have a high school, we have, you, we have,

00:32:54.080 we have a MEPS, uh, so you can join the military.

00:32:56.580 Then we have our, then we have colleges.

00:32:58.520 We have, we have higher grad, uh, then we have, we have the retirement section.

00:33:02.240 We have the RV trailers and all the way at the other end of base, we have a cemetery.

00:33:05.080 It's like the whole, it's, it's a whole thing and community, right?

00:33:09.440 Yeah, which is, which is what you want, which is ultimately what you want.

00:33:12.380 And, and, and, and, you know, it's, it was heartbreaking.

00:33:17.020 And, and by the way, obviously a national security crisis, if we broke that, if we broke

00:33:21.520 that system and broke that trust for so many of those, so many of those generations that

00:33:25.680 you, you meet people and, and it's shocking when they say, oh, I've, every generation of

00:33:29.620 my family has served back to the revolution.

00:33:31.140 That's right.

00:33:32.140 And, but you hear it all the time.

00:33:33.140 You really do hear it all the time.

00:33:34.140 You do hear it all the time.

00:33:35.140 Everyone who serves knows someone like that.

00:33:36.140 I, I had, um, I'm guessing it was a year, it might've been two over the past four years

00:33:41.140 while I was a civilian, I guess I'm still a civilian, but just, when I was, when I was

00:33:48.840 in my private, uh, life, uh, for, you know, after I'd separated, I wondered if the trends

00:33:54.960 continued, we might lose our opportunity to have an all volunteer force in this country.

00:33:59.140 And the trends were bad enough.

00:34:01.140 That was my, I don't know if everyone would have agreed with that, but as I watched what

00:34:04.140 was happening, I thought, I don't know how many years you keep this up with low recruitment

00:34:07.800 numbers, uh, and, and still avoid a compulsory military service in this country.

00:34:13.040 We've enjoyed over a half century of all, in all volunteer force.

00:34:16.140 And, um, I think the trend is headed in the right direction.

00:34:18.140 Yeah.

00:34:19.140 I think that's, that's incredible.

00:34:20.140 One of the, um, you know, and I, and I have to bring this up because one of the people

00:34:25.220 that I know who were, who was so focused on that very issue was someone who was actually

00:34:32.420 appointed to the board of visitors for the United States air force and had conduct, had

00:34:39.180 time to conduct one visit out there in, uh, in Colorado Springs.

00:34:43.980 And that was Charlie Kirk and Charlie and I spoke many times about how he was so excited.

00:34:50.220 And, you know, he had, he'd had an interest in serving earlier in his life.

00:34:54.720 It didn't work out.

00:34:55.720 He ended up doing turning point full time and we all know the story there, but he always

00:35:00.920 had the utmost respect for the military.

00:35:03.220 And I knew that joining the air force in even this advisory capacity was so exciting for him.

00:35:09.720 Tragically, he didn't get a chance to see that all the way through, but you told me you

00:35:13.820 had a conversation with Charlie right before he took that visit.

00:35:17.220 Yeah, we had, um, so my, my conversations with Charlie were after his visit to the air

00:35:22.520 force academy in his capacity, uh, on the board of visitors.

00:35:26.220 Okay.

00:35:27.220 Uh, but just a couple of days before his assassination.

00:35:30.220 Wow.

00:35:31.220 And, uh, we had spoken a couple of times, in fact, and exchanged messages because I'll share

00:35:35.720 with you the two reasons that he was really interested in talking with me about his love for those

00:35:40.220 cadets.

00:35:41.220 Uh, he, he spent time there getting a tour at the air force academy, spent time with the leadership

00:35:45.220 there, he, he got to see what cadet life was like and he got to interact with the men and

00:35:49.220 women that are the future leaders in the air and space force. 0.97

00:35:52.220 And he had great respect for them, said they were outstanding and impressive, wanted to ensure

00:35:57.220 that any barriers to their character development and their education were eliminated.

00:36:01.220 That was one thing.

00:36:02.220 And he also took particular interest in the cadet chapel.

00:36:06.220 Uh, it's a historic building.

00:36:07.220 Uh, it was, uh, first finished in 1962.

00:36:11.220 And he, he was disappointed to see, as are many people, uh, and, and rightly so, the big

00:36:17.220 white box that sits around the cadet chapel because it's under construction.

00:36:20.220 There's a, there's a restoration project that's been underway for many years.

00:36:24.220 And Charlie said, Hey, I've just called the president.

00:36:26.220 I've spoken with him a couple of times expressing the need to move out faster and get this, this,

00:36:31.220 this, this, uh, restoration project, uh, done correctly because we're going to have two generations

00:36:36.220 of young cadets that come through this place and never get to experience or see their, their cadet

00:36:41.220 chapel.

00:36:42.220 And, um, I appreciated that input and the air force, uh, appreciated the input, uh, already

00:36:47.220 thought that, but to see that there was extra attention.

00:36:50.220 Uh, and in fact, recently the president even put up a true social post about the chapel.

00:36:54.220 He's paying attention, but the air force leadership is moving out with alacrity, trying to get that

00:37:00.220 project, um, done as quickly and as wisely as possible so that we can get our, our cadets,

00:37:08.220 uh, one back in, in, in what is the, uh, symbol of the spiritual center there of the air force

00:37:14.220 academy.

00:37:15.220 Uh, and also all the, all the folks driving down interstate 25 every day of the week that

00:37:19.220 see just a white box and not the iconic chapel there.

00:37:22.220 Um, so that effort's going well.

00:37:24.220 In fact, I recently took a trip out there to meet with the contractor and air force, uh,

00:37:27.220 leadership who are in charge of that project to make sure that we get it right.

00:37:31.220 Move it left if possible, save as much money as possible moving forward.

00:37:34.220 And I'm, I'm optimistic about those conversations, but Charlie cared about getting that right.

00:37:38.220 And that was the last conversation I had about, uh, with him was about that chapel.

00:37:43.220 There's, there's so many touch points and so many fingers and so many pots that Charlie

00:37:48.220 had.

00:37:49.220 It's incredible to hear that we're going to carry that out.

00:37:51.220 And I, I know Charlie would really appreciate that.

00:37:53.220 We'll be right back to take a quick break here at human events daily.

00:37:56.220 Jack is a great guy.

00:38:10.220 He's written a fantastic book.

00:38:12.220 Everybody's talking about it.

00:38:13.220 Go get it.

00:38:14.220 And he's been my friend right from the beginning of this whole beautiful event.

00:38:18.220 And we're going to turn it around and make our country quite a good day.

00:38:22.220 Amen.

00:38:25.220 All right, Jack Posobiec.

00:38:27.220 We are back here and we're, we've been so excited and so blessed on this Veterans Day

00:38:32.220 to have had the time to sit down with the Undersecretary of the Air Force, Lieutenant Colonel Matthew Lohmeyer.

00:38:38.220 He is the first veteran of the Space Force and he's the author of the book Irresistible Revolution.

00:38:45.220 And he's been telling us so much about his story and all of the things that he's been up to now,

00:38:50.220 all the work that he's been doing, uh, setting aside private life, coming back to government.

00:38:54.220 Mr. Secretary, I just want to say how thankful I am that you were here with us on this Veterans Day.

00:39:00.220 Do you have a final message for, for the veterans out there, the service members out there, just as we go through this Veterans Day about,

00:39:07.220 from the administration, from your position?

00:39:09.220 Yeah.

00:39:10.220 Thank you.

00:39:11.220 Thank you for having me on.

00:39:12.220 Happy to spend time with you.

00:39:13.220 Uh, I suppose my message would be thanks.

00:39:15.220 Um, I already mentioned that, you know, the first day I'd come back in, uh, to this position,

00:39:20.220 I had an opportunity to sit and listen to the, in a, in a, in a classified setting, the work that our, uh, men and women in uniform do specifically.

00:39:28.220 No spillage.

00:39:29.220 No spillage.

00:39:30.220 No spillage.

00:39:31.220 And no spillage here.

00:39:32.220 I'm locked vault.

00:39:33.220 But, um, I, I think the, the only thing that there is to say on a day like this is thank you to the men and women in uniform.

00:39:38.220 Um, we've got a great administration.

00:39:40.220 We've got a great Secretary of War who's laser focused on the things that matter. 1.00

00:39:44.220 And, uh, and I'm focused on those things too, and I'm grateful for the opportunity to come on and thank them and thank you for your time.

00:39:50.220 Mr. Under Secretary.

00:39:51.220 Thank you.

00:39:52.220 Absolute honor.

00:39:53.220 Thank you so much for joining us.

00:39:54.220 Thanks, Jack.

00:39:55.220 Folks, it's, it's very rare when you, when you get a situation like that.

00:39:59.220 And, and I know that he's, he's not able to, you know, talk about it in, in his official capacity, but we'll, we'll let you know that he is the subject of this new documentary that's just come out.

00:40:10.220 And it's over on Salem now.

00:40:11.220 I want to give everyone an opportunity to go and check it out.

00:40:14.220 It is called call sign courage.

00:40:17.220 And it's at Salem now.com.

00:40:20.220 And it's an incredible, just an incredible look, not just through his career, through his story, but also at the history of communism itself, the history of what communists have done all around the world.

00:40:35.220 And in fact, I, I, I guys, I mean, I'm just going to say it.

00:40:38.220 Let's, let's hit the trailer again, because this thing was too good.

00:40:40.220 What do you say?

00:40:41.220 Do we have it lined up?

00:40:42.220 Can we just hit the trailer again?

00:40:43.220 Matt Pavioli

00:40:46.220 Like a player.

00:40:48.220 Being spied on, the chaplain snooping around my office and my house being broken into.

00:40:53.220 Things like that don't happen on military bases.

00:40:56.220 The man I'm interviewing today has 1,200 hours of flying a T-38,

00:41:01.540 followed by the F-15C.

00:41:03.960 Colonel Matthew Lohmeyer.

00:41:05.440 Matthew Lohmeyer.

00:41:06.520 Matthew Lohmeyer.

00:41:07.280 This is not just anybody we're talking about that served the military.

00:41:11.980 Historically, we've been the best in the world

00:41:13.680 because we've always cared about America.

00:41:17.640 And it's what made the American military

00:41:19.500 the most lethal military on the planet.

00:41:21.480 The entire military is preparing for a fight against China.

00:41:25.220 President Xi is the most ideological leader

00:41:27.860 that China's had since Chairman Mao.

00:41:30.000 Mao said he doesn't need military people.

00:41:32.440 He has an army of indoctrinated kids.

00:41:36.420 They asked me what my pronouns were

00:41:37.880 and they thought it was incredible to see that inclusion and change.

00:41:41.940 We were starting to be divided by political discourse.

00:41:45.000 I want to understand white rage and I'm white.

00:41:46.960 That's what diversity, equity, inclusion is all about.

00:41:49.440 Inclusion, equality are what's important.

00:41:51.740 That's how we'll win our nation's wars.

00:41:53.600 We are trained Marxists.

00:41:55.520 Because of forces coming from Marxism within our own government,

00:41:58.520 it becomes not a foreign threat, it becomes a domestic threat.

00:42:02.300 The base commander was the ideologue

00:42:04.360 who was pushing a particular political agenda.

00:42:06.820 If you're white, you're a part of the problem. 1.00

00:42:08.460 Biggest terror threat in this country is white men. 0.88

00:42:11.880 Violent white supremacy.

00:42:13.320 One of the greatest obstacles to the success of a Marxist revolutionary cause

00:42:18.940 is a strong, united military force.

00:42:23.080 Someone needed to speak up.

00:42:24.580 I mean, you look at this, folks.

00:42:37.980 You look at the history of the division.

00:42:40.060 And this is what Marxism does.

00:42:42.720 Marxism comes in to divide.

00:42:46.920 Marxism takes a stable situation,

00:42:49.600 takes a stable group,

00:42:50.600 takes a stable country,

00:42:53.060 a stable military force,

00:42:54.800 and it comes in and divides it.

00:42:56.420 Or should I say even a stable movement,

00:42:59.040 like the conservative movement.

00:43:00.480 And they divide.

00:43:01.620 They pit one side against another.

00:43:03.280 They draw false binaries.

00:43:05.160 And they begin their attacks.

00:43:07.200 This is the essence of Marxism.

00:43:09.860 But people have to understand,

00:43:10.840 it is a Marxist tactic.

00:43:12.640 Because then, once the Marxist divides,

00:43:15.540 the Marxist conquers.

00:43:17.040 So, we wrote about this in Unhumans last year.

00:43:20.200 We were very clear about it.

00:43:21.640 We said, first they observe,

00:43:24.700 then they orient,

00:43:25.840 they decide,

00:43:26.680 they act.

00:43:27.480 And these are all stages of the revolution.

00:43:30.340 Or the intelligence preparation of the environment.

00:43:33.660 The OPE,

00:43:35.440 the operational preparation of the environment.

00:43:37.880 And when they run through this,

00:43:40.580 it's so obvious,

00:43:42.760 because you see them doing it again,

00:43:44.500 and again,

00:43:45.080 and again,

00:43:45.520 everywhere.

00:43:46.880 It is their only tactic.

00:43:49.520 And it's obviously

00:43:50.220 what they were doing to our government.

00:43:52.100 It's obviously what they were doing to our military.

00:43:54.220 And it's obviously

00:43:55.160 what they were doing with our administration.

00:43:58.560 But I've got to say something else.

00:44:01.340 So yesterday was the two-month anniversary

00:44:03.360 of the murder of Charlie Kirk.

00:44:05.940 Charlie Kirk was murdered by a violent leftist.

00:44:08.480 We now know through the investigation,

00:44:11.420 we know through leakers,

00:44:12.260 we know from many others,

00:44:13.200 that this violent leftist

00:44:15.420 was involved with the transsexual community,

00:44:19.120 was involved with the furry community.

00:44:21.520 And rather than focus on the violent left

00:44:27.460 and these trans groups

00:44:30.060 and these furry groups

00:44:31.300 and this subculture,

00:44:32.460 which, by the way,

00:44:33.120 if you go and look,

00:44:34.060 we have the exclusive footage here

00:44:35.720 on Human Events Daily

00:44:36.820 that we can show you

00:44:37.840 that was provided to us

00:44:39.420 by Turning Point Frontlines

00:44:40.580 of another Antifa furry

00:44:44.520 that was out there last night

00:44:46.740 on the Berkeley campus.

00:44:48.280 Some people will say,

00:44:48.840 Posa, why are you asking about that?

00:44:50.140 Posa, why are you talking about this?

00:44:51.600 This stuff is gross.

00:44:52.480 This stuff is weird.

00:44:53.320 Well, guess what?

00:44:54.560 Guess what?

00:44:57.300 Charlie Kirk is dead

00:44:58.560 because of this stuff.

00:45:00.260 Charlie Kirk was murdered

00:45:01.380 because of this stuff.

00:45:02.740 Erica and those kids

00:45:06.320 will not have

00:45:08.540 their loving husband and father

00:45:11.300 come home

00:45:12.380 because of this stuff.

00:45:14.580 So I'm sorry

00:45:15.540 if you're a little bit grossed out.

00:45:19.080 I'm sorry

00:45:19.960 if you're a little bit uncomfortable

00:45:22.460 when I talk about it.

00:45:23.820 But guess what?

00:45:27.480 To know the enemy,

00:45:28.960 you must understand the enemy.

00:45:30.680 And to defeat the enemy,

00:45:32.880 you must know the enemy.

00:45:35.280 It is as simple as that.

00:45:37.000 And what do I see

00:45:37.940 out across conservative media?

00:45:40.600 Do I see people focused on this?

00:45:42.500 Do I see people

00:45:43.240 trying to understand

00:45:43.960 the violent left?

00:45:44.700 Do I see people

00:45:45.340 trying to understand

00:45:46.040 the Marxist revolution that,

00:45:47.520 by the way,

00:45:48.060 let's just go down

00:45:48.780 the scoreboard, all right?

00:45:50.820 New York City

00:45:51.840 just fell to Marxism.

00:45:54.400 The state of Virginia

00:45:55.400 just elected

00:45:56.320 a violent Marxist

00:45:57.820 who said

00:45:58.580 that he wants to kill

00:45:59.840 all of our children.

00:46:01.680 1.7 million people

00:46:03.880 in Virginia,

00:46:04.900 these liberals,

00:46:05.640 all voted for him.

00:46:07.020 Okay?

00:46:07.860 And we're told

00:46:08.580 to unite behind a guy like that.

00:46:10.440 Unite with people like that

00:46:11.700 who said 1.7 million.

00:46:13.340 Okay.

00:46:15.740 So all this is happening.

00:46:17.640 All this is happening.

00:46:18.680 New York City,

00:46:19.620 Virginia,

00:46:20.400 Charlie Kirk's murder.

00:46:21.640 And what do I see

00:46:22.240 across the right,

00:46:23.300 across the conservative movement?

00:46:24.440 I see bickering.

00:46:25.540 I see infighting.

00:46:26.740 I see e-drama.

00:46:28.180 I say,

00:46:28.520 oh,

00:46:29.040 you gotta argue

00:46:29.720 with the comments.

00:46:30.720 You gotta look at this comment.

00:46:31.940 I gotta argue with it.

00:46:33.040 I gotta argue

00:46:33.540 with that commenter.

00:46:34.440 I gotta argue

00:46:34.940 with the internet trolls.

00:46:36.420 I gotta argue

00:46:37.220 with, you know,

00:46:38.380 these people online.

00:46:39.840 These people are mad online.

00:46:41.260 I gotta respond.

00:46:42.900 No.

00:46:44.060 No.

00:46:44.580 You gotta get your head

00:46:45.380 on straight.

00:46:46.840 We are in a war

00:46:47.960 for Western civilization.

00:46:50.780 The patriots

00:46:51.660 of the United States

00:46:52.520 of America

00:46:53.120 did not die,

00:46:54.800 did not give

00:46:55.380 their lives,

00:46:56.180 did not sacrifice

00:46:57.160 everything.

00:46:57.900 Their families

00:46:58.420 didn't sacrifice

00:46:59.240 everything

00:46:59.900 so that we could

00:47:01.000 go down

00:47:01.760 bickering and complaining

00:47:03.540 instead of fighting back.

00:47:05.880 It's time to fight back.

00:47:07.400 So it's time

00:47:07.800 to get your head

00:47:08.280 on straight.

00:47:09.060 It's time to lock in

00:47:10.320 and it's time

00:47:11.040 to march forward.

00:47:13.860 It's as simple as that.

00:47:15.560 We have to get it going.

00:47:17.260 Charlie deserved it.

00:47:18.660 Charlie's family

00:47:19.440 deserved it.

00:47:20.520 Charlie's children

00:47:21.320 deserve it.

00:47:22.120 We will lose

00:47:25.860 our country

00:47:26.540 if the patriots

00:47:27.460 do not hold together.

00:47:29.360 It's as simple

00:47:29.980 as that.

00:47:30.840 So on this Veterans Day

00:47:31.880 when we talk

00:47:34.220 to the veterans

00:47:34.900 when you think

00:47:36.180 about the veterans

00:47:36.880 think about yourself

00:47:38.700 too

00:47:39.000 and think about

00:47:39.800 what you're doing

00:47:40.720 to honor

00:47:41.580 that which they

00:47:42.520 fought for

00:47:43.100 the United States

00:47:44.100 of America.

00:47:45.140 Ladies and gentlemen

00:47:45.820 as always

00:47:46.460 you have my permission

00:47:47.280 to lay sure.
